First the state of collapse
Then the state of decay
I was state of the art
'Til I squandered my heart
And it wasted away
Then the state of decay
I was state of the art
'Til I squandered my heart
And it wasted away
When I chased you away
I had no place to stay
All alone in my room
Had to dance with the broom
I embraced it and swayed
I had no place to stay
All alone in my room
Had to dance with the broom
I embraced it and swayed
I danced a rhumba with time
Which at first felt divine to me
All of my partners were kind to me
In my fantasy
Which at first felt divine to me
All of my partners were kind to me
In my fantasy
I dug tunnels through days
Lived my nights in a haze
I made romance a game
All the boys were the same
Can't remember a name now
(Can't remember a name now)
Lived my nights in a haze
I made romance a game
All the boys were the same
Can't remember a name now
(Can't remember a name now)
Wouldn't share them at all
I was having a ball
Chasing coat-tails and cocktails and orchids
The splendid 'who cares?' of it all
I was having a ball
Chasing coat-tails and cocktails and orchids
The splendid 'who cares?' of it all
I danced a rhumba with time
Which at first felt divine to me
All of my partners were so kind to me
Love was so blind to me
Which at first felt divine to me
All of my partners were so kind to me
Love was so blind to me
